* KickTheSonOfABitch: The Grand Cyclops of the local KKK isn't actually guilty of the crime Chalky is interrogating him over, but it's pretty damn hard to feel bad when Chalky brutally tortures him anyways.

* BookEnds: [[spoiler: His first and last meeting with Chalky consists of Dunn recieving a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown from him.]]

* ButNotTooBlack: Valentin Narcisse shows contempt for darker-skinned Chalky.

* ButNotTooBlack: Deliberately invoked. It appears that this is a requirement to court Chalky White's daughter, whether she likes it or not.

* ButNotTooBlack: In the language of the times, she's referred to as "high-yellow".

* GoldTooth: As a gesture of good-will, Chalky paid for a nice set of gold teeth to replace the ones kicked out during the aforementioned NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.

* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: Forgoes his revenge and gives himself up to Narcisse so that Daughter can be free.]]

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: His S4 subplot, one of the year's heaviest, is rather contrively solved in just a few scenes of S5. Things surely would have been different, had HBO not cancelled the show 2 seasons early and given Winter only 8 episodes to tie everything up.

* DatingWhatDaddyHates: Played with. In Samuel's first Season 2 appearance, it seems that Chalky disapproves of his daughter dating a high-yellow "domesticated" type, and he drunkenly lashes out at the dinner table. However, by Season 3 Chalky has had a change of heart and decides that it's best for his daughter to have that kind of stability in her life. In turn, Maybelle has apparently lost interest in Samuel, longing for a "bad-boy" type [[FreudWasRight like her father]]. [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids Chalky will have none of this]], and [[DeliberateValuesDissonance decides that Maybelle will marry Samuel]]. Maybelle does eventually come around after witnessing a violent confrontation in a negro club, and Samuel's altruistic behavior during this incident.

* NeverLearnedToRead: [[AlternateCharacterInterpretation An]] [[ImpliedTrope ambiguous]] [[ZigZaggedTrope case]]. In "Ourselves Alone", he guesses correctly that Chalky can't read and keeps trying to get him to admit it, but doesn't correct Chalky when he says the title of the book (''TomSawyer'', when he has a copy of ''DavidCopperfield'') or the plot (a story Chalky completely makes up, based on a picture). In "Erlkönig" he is seen handling a newspaper at a barbershop, but he doesn't overturn the pages either and could be looking at the pictures or using it to feign literacy like Chalky did.
